When reading the facts, I can’t help but thinking that the perceived negativity that we see here from some of our European friends against Tesla is actually not true or that people here are so « niche » that they don’t see the forest behind the bush. It also seems that there are a lot of German driver who truely don't care about driving super fast on the autobahn since we know EV cannot really do that well.

 

Model S is in the E-class/5 series segment, not S class/7 series. Size wise, price wise and luxury level wise. Actually on second thought, interior level for Model S is more of a Camry level.

Apples and Oranges, it's basically saying Honda Civic outsells the S-class which also outsells the Model S. Meaningless. 

Price-wise, the Tesla S is closer to 7 series and S class, at least in Germany.

Also, I'm not sure all former 7 series and S class owners chose a Tesla S instead. Smiley
